Comment (by thomie):

 `ghc --help` doesn't need to mention `-auto-all`

 Deprecating `-auto-all`, `-auto` and `-caf-all` is ok, but you'll have to
 mention it in the release notes (`docs/users_guide/8.2.1-notes.rst`), and
 update all places where they are used in the `testsuite`, `docs` and
 `nofib`.
